On a sunny spring day in the third year of Shaosheng in the Northern Song Dynasty, the first rays of morning light in the forest sprinkled on the mountains, and the joyful birdsong indicated that it would be a beautiful day. In front of the dilapidated wooden house, Zhang Daoren leaned against the door and took a nap, when he suddenly heard a string of melodious birdsong and woke him up. "What a cheerful cry of this little bird today! Zhang Daoren rubbed his sleepy eyes, and when he looked up, a kingfisher bird stood on the roof and looked back at him, and let out a series of gentle chirps before flying away. Zhang Daoren smiled slightly, thinking that this little bird must have a happy event. He looked at the sky and decided it was time to go out and forage for food. Then he picked up the bamboo basket and walked towards the mountain. On this day, Zhang Daoren found a lot of wild fruits in the mountains, and when the basket was almost full, he suddenly heard a loud "plop" by the stream. Zhang Daoren was surprised, and hurriedly walked over to check, only to see a big golden carp struggling to return to the water, and hurried over to help, only then did he see that it was a shiny big golden turtle! Zhang Daoren was pleasantly surprised, and when he picked up the golden turtle and looked carefully, he saw that it was about the size of a palm, the shell was carved with fine patterns, and the neck and limbs were inlaid with precious stones, which was obviously worth a lot. Zhang Daoren danced happily and went home with the golden turtle in his arms. "Wife, come and see, I'm so lucky to have picked up the baby! Zhang Daoren presented the golden turtle with both hands and shouted excitedly. "What kind of mess are you picking up? Oh! Wang was busy cooking, and when he heard this, he looked up and was suddenly shocked, "Isn't this made of pure gold?" How could there be such a big beetle! "Haha, this must be the heavens for us! Zhang Daoren was very happy, "This is all over the world, how much silver can you exchange for if you sell it?" "Alas, it's better to sell it for silver! Wang's eyes lit up and he danced excitedly. Zhang Daoren bowed his head, looked at the golden turtle again, and thought that God blessed, in the future, the chicken dog **, the family will be prosperous and rich. 
That night, Zhang Daoren slept restlessly. He had a strange dream that he came to a murmuring stream, which was lush and green, surrounded by clear water and mountains, and had a pleasant view. When Zhang Daoren was admiring, he suddenly heard a majestic voice in the water: "Hey! You scoundrel who took my baby! Don't hurry up and hand over my golden body! Zhang Daoren was shocked, looked down, and saw a scholar in green clothes standing in the water, staring at him menacingly. "Golden body? Who are you? Zhang Daoren stammered and asked. "I am the river god of this river! That golden turtle is my doppelganger! The man in Tsing Yi clapped his hands and shouted loudly, "I want to retreat before I take off my golden body and entrust it to you humans to take care of, but you will swallow it privately, and you deserve death!" "I'm so sorry! Zhang Daoren knelt down and apologized, "I'll send it back!" "That's nature! The river god sneered, "I will always keep an eye on you, if you dare to lie, I will let your whole family die well!" Zhang Daoren woke up in shock, sweating profusely. The dream was vivid in his mind, and it made him creepy. He told Wang about the dream, but Wang laughed and said, "You are too superstitious! How can it be such a coincidence! Eighty percent of them were thrown into the river without being wanted. Now that you've picked it up, don't believe that! Although Zhang Daoren had doubts, he did not dare to disobey his wife. After hearing Zhang Daoren's dream, Wang didn't believe it at all, and continued to urge to sell the golden turtle quickly. It didn't take long for a buyer to come and inquire. Wang picked a wealthy merchant with the highest bid and sold the golden turtle. She was overjoyed to get these silver taels! The Wang family began to squander lavishly, buying a lot of clothes and jewelry, and building a two-story house under the pretext of marrying his son Li Ping. Zhang Daoren watched his wife spend money lavishly with money, and his heart became more and more worried, and he always felt that the matter of the river god was not so simple, and his dream was vivid, which really made him uneasy. On this day, Zhang Daoren was pruning autumn branches in the courtyard, and overheard Wang and Li Ping arguing in the main room: "Mother, our family is rich now, and I should start a family." Didn't you ask the matchmaker to tell me kiss, why don't you mention this matter again these days? Li Ping asked suspiciously. "Hmph, those broken women don't deserve our current identity! Wang said disdainfully, "Don't worry, my mother has instructed the matchmaker to find the right daughter for you in the city!" Li Ping listened and nodded as if he didn't understand. Zhang Daoren was upset on the side. I wanted to dissuade the Wang family from squandering anymore, but it has always been the Wang family who calls the shots. In desperation, Zhang Daoren had to stay alone in the old house in the countryside, worrying every day that the river god would come. And Li Ping soon got engaged to the city. The newly married little wife is the daughter of the richest man in the local area, and she was born in Peugeot and was deeply liked by the Wang family. The family has moved to the city, and only Zhang Daoren is still in the old house, making a living from fishing. One day, when Zhang Daoren was about to go home after selling the fish, an old beggar in ragged clothes came to the stall and weakly begged for the remaining fish to be satisfied. Zhang Dao was kind-hearted and gave him all the leftover fish. The old beggar was overjoyed when he got the fish, and said to Zhang Daoren: "Brother, I see that you are preoccupied, it seems that there is something unspeakable? Zhang Daoren was surprised, how could this old beggar know his troubles? Immediately told me about the golden turtle, and the beggar was silent when he heard it. 
After hearing this, the beggar groaned, took out the rune paper from the tattered cuffs, and instructed Zhang Daoren to burn it when he met the river god to collect debts, and there would be Taoist elders to help. Zhang Daoren thanked him again and again, and went home to carefully put away the rune paper, so that he could feel more relieved. After another half a year, the Ma family's business was booming, and the Wang family and his daughter-in-law ran a teahouse hotel, making money every day. Li Ping was also prosperous in the city and made extensive contacts. Only Zhang Daoren is still in the countryside, living a simple and poor life. On this day, Zhang Daoren went to the river to fish as usual. was carrying a basket of fresh fish home, and saw a strange man standing at the door of the house, wearing green clothes, holding a whisk, looking at him coldly. Zhang Daoren's heart tightened, and he recognized it as the river god in his dream, and he was so frightened that the fish boy fell to the ground. "Aren't you the river god of my dreams! Zhang Daoren's face was bloodless, and he asked in a trembling voice. "Haha, that's a good guess! Come on, catch this impudent thief! The man in Tsing Yi laughed, and with a wave of his hand, the surrounding air condensed, and the water column tied Zhang Daoren and controlled it tightly. "Please spare me! Zhang Daoren was terrified and pleaded. "Still want to run? No way! The river god shook his sleeves, and the water dragon threw Zhang Daoren into the air and fell heavily to the ground. Zhang Daoren groaned, and before he could get up, he saw the river god stomp his feet, and a big hole was cracked in the ground, and billowing black smoke came out and hit him. Zhang Daoren was shocked, and hurriedly took out the rune paper from his arms and lit it, shouting: "Help, please save me!" Just as the black smoke was about to engulf Zhang Daoren, a golden light suddenly rose from the fire. I saw a white-bearded old man appear in front of Zhang Daoren and waved his hand to restore the courtyard to its original state. "Breeze Chief! The river god was shocked and knelt down on his knees, "It's the seniors who are disrespectful!" I saw Qingfeng Dao Chang smiled gently, and waved his hand to let the river god get up. "Don't blame this mortal, he doesn't know the destiny of heaven. I have a plan for this, I wonder what you think? "Qingfeng Dao Leader is kind and persuasive. The river god was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly nodded. Qingfeng Dao Chang then spoke: "You stop for the time being, and wait for the Ma family to take out their savings to build a temple to worship your incarnation and apologize." In this way, you and I have no grudges. Luckily? "Yay! The river god pulled Zhang Daoren, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Did you hear that?" Quickly promise the words of the seniors! My golden body is so good that you are worshipped, I will spare you! Zhang Daoren knelt down, kowtowed to the two, and vowed to complete the task of building the temple. With the help of Qingfeng Dao Chang, the Ma family gathered their savings and built a Linggui Temple in the open space by the river. The big golden turtle in the temple is lifelike, and the incense is endless. The river god is overjoyed and often manifests. The temple has gradually become the most effective temple in the area. The Taoist and the river god were very satisfied, and they no longer embarrassed the Ma family. After the Ma family worshiped the river god, business also became smooth, and the days became more and more prosperous. The Wang family and his son-in-law were dressed in brocade clothes, Li Ping was named a wealthy businessman by the emperor, and Zhang Daoren was also mixed with Qingfu and had no worries. One day, Zhang Daoren passed by the market and saw the beggar again. So he stepped forward and beckoned: "Thank you for that help, if it weren't for your spell, I would have died a long time ago!" The beggar laughed and patted Zhang Daoren on the shoulder: "We are destined!" Your business is also booming, which shows that it is useful to pray to God and worship Buddha! Zhang Daoren suddenly understood, and said in a lost voice: "Could it be that you are the Qingfeng Dao Chief!" The beggar laughed wildly for a while, turned into a fluttering immortal, and flew to the sky, leaving a sentence: "Good will be rewarded, good and bad will be rewarded, only people will recruit themselves!" Zhang Daoren suddenly realized. 
Since then, Zhang Daoren has become more devout to the gods and Buddhas, and often goes to the Linggui Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings and pray for the safety of his family. One day, while he was praying in the temple, he suddenly saw a golden light shoot out from the turtle statue, and the figure of the head of the breeze appeared in the smoke. "Zhang Daoren, you and I are destined, and I am here to help you with one thing. Qingfeng Dao Chang said happily. "The predecessors have taught, ** must listen! Zhang Daoren hurriedly bowed. "Your family Li Ping is seriously ill, this is caused by the evil obstacles in the previous life, if not, it will affect the whole family. Qingfeng Dao sighed, "Do you remember the rune paper I gave you?" You can burn it to Li Ping, and I can help him get rid of the disease. Zhang Daoren was shocked when he heard this, and immediately went home to get the talisman paper and burned it to ashes, and fed it to Li Ping to swallow. Sure enough, Li Ping's tone was getting better, and his spirit was lifted. After Li Ping recovered from his illness, Zhang Daoren went to the Taoist Temple to burn incense and thank him. On the way, he suddenly met a lotus boy and said to him with a smile: "Lao Zhang, there will be a happy event in your family soon!" Zhang Daoren was confused, but the lotus boy had disappeared. When he returned home, Zhang Daocai heard from Wang that his daughter-in-law was pregnant! Zhang Daoren was overjoyed, and remembered the boy's prophecy, and couldn't help dancing. When his daughter-in-law gave birth safely, he hired a famous doctor and hoped that everything would be safe. Sure enough, the daughter-in-law soon gave birth to a little doll carved in pink, and the family rejoiced. Li Ping named "Tianming" to express his love for his heirs and his good expectations for the future. Time has come to the day when Li Tianming turns one year old. The family celebrated lively, and Zhang Daoren was even more smiling. Suddenly, the courtyard gate was blown open by a strong gust of wind, and I saw the head of the Qingfeng Road appearing in it. "I am happy to have a noble son, and it is really the favor of God. Today, I offer an elixir of life to wish Tianming health and peace. Zhang Daoren hurriedly stepped forward to take it and kowtowed to the Taoist. Since then, Li Tianming has been very intelligent, and when he grows up, he has won glory and wealth for the Ma family. Zhang Daoren is grateful for the virtues of God and Buddha, worships with devotion and enjoys lifelong happiness. He lived to be ninety years old and lived in his hometown. Since then, every festival, there is always incense in the temple, and believers gather. People say that this place is a miracle and can bless the happiness and health of the whole family.
